About
Fakta singkat: A long riverside green curves along the water, featuring a charming medieval-style village and a small castle that locals use as a backdrop for evening passeggiata. Cyclists, families, and student groups share wide promenades shaded by plane trees, while weekend markets and open-air concerts keep the scene animated.
Sorotan: A meticulous medieval village was assembled for the 1884 Italian General Exposition, with craftsmen reproducing stonework, timber frames, and frescoed interiors that reward close-up exploration. Students from the nearby architecture faculty often spread sketchbooks on the castle steps, the scratch of pencils and the scent of old stone giving the place a surprisingly lived-in, creative energy.
Insider tips
- Wear comfortable shoes, many paths are gravel and you will walk several kilometres.
- Head to the river near Ponte Umberto I or the lawns by Castello del Valentino for golden-hour photos.
- Visit on weekday mornings to avoid weekend crowds and enjoy the botanical garden in quiet.
- Bring a picnic or a light jacket; the Po river can be breezy and there are plenty of pleasant spots to sit.
